How do I get wl with shadows like all the new pictures?

[Athena Naminosaki]

Not sure how to explain and cant find an example on here but im trying to figure out how people make their pictures with shadows. Was told its a windlight setting. Its popular and has a sunny look to it and defined shadows that make it look realistic and neat

You have to enable shadows in your Preferences (CTRL+P).

Windlight itself doesn't have shadows.  Windlight is a system of environment controls that let you change the look of the sky and water, and time of day.

Shadows are enabled in Preferences/Graphics/Advanced.  Check the Lighting and Shadows button.  Careful, it will demand a lot more from your graphics card!
